To celebrate faith and culture in this Year of Faith, Rita A. Simmonds, a friend, is reading her poetry in a program Versed in Prayer, at St. Malachy's-The Actors' Chapel in NYC on 28 November 2012, 7pm.
Rita's poetry is frequently featured in the monthly MAGNIFICAT magazine. Her work is award-winning.
Versed in Prayer is MAGNIFICAT's way of celebrating the Year of Faith following upon the invitation of Pope Benedict: "Faith is God's gift and transforms the person deep within. Confessing with the lips in turn implies public testimony."
Versed in Prayer will be moderated by MAGNIFICAT's Editor-in-Chief Father Peter John Cameron, OP with the abled assistance of Jonathan Fields on guitar and photography by David Galalis.
The event is free. No tickets required. More info found here.
